A person of no consequence. I am following a lot of new accounts presently in order to prepare to migrate from the other place, but I will not be creating many (if any) new posts.

If I have followed you recently, it is because you have posted something related to UK history or current affairs. I am trying to reduce the amount of US content in my feeds.
Given the way the triple lock works a far more beneficial and also easier to defend change would be to lock the state pension to only earnings.
wait, Polette has closed their showroom, Ace & Tate only do it for free if you buy glasses from them now, Specsavers no longer give out vouchers - are you telling me I'm going to have to *pay* for an eye test for the first time in my life because no one does them for free in London anymore? urgh?

I bet she is just waiting for the the day she can say he has met his Waterloo. I know I would.
John Bull@garius.bsky.social · 5mo agoI always say his name with the French emphasis as well, when i check him in just for her.
I've started preemptively asking Street Chuggers for directions to Marks and Spencer. surprisingly effective.
Judah Grunstein@judah-grunstein.bsky.social · 5mo agoKid wearing a corporate-logo'd jacket knocking at the door: Morning, sir, I'll keep it short for you.

Octopus (and others) can still offer an ECO10 tariff that was intended for users of storage heaters. I a saving around 30% over a standard tariff by using my water and heating in the low-rate periods. there are 3 of these in each 24 hours.
HangryGannet@hangrygannet.bsky.social · 5mo agoSure, simpler but internet connectivity is great for a fun little project that might even pay for itself. A Raspberry Pi can easily get the 30 minute prices from say Octopus Energy API for the Octopus Agile tariff, work out the most cost efficient time to run the selected washing machine program …
I think the day warrants another look at Craig Ferguson and Geoff's best ever moment (at least, one that doesn't involve the words "Careful, Icarus".) The pair of them egging each other on into a chronic giggle fit makes the sun come out every time for me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iN9...
